Our hike and trip schedule is affected by coronavirus

Coronavirus-related closures and restrictions mean there are not many options for hiking. Read more about it here.

The current situation

Mostly everywhere is closed for hiking.

Scenic areas are closed down—some of our hikes pass through ticketed areas. All the scenic areas we have been in contact with are currently closed, and their staff are not permitted to admit visitors until further notice.

Villages are closed to visitors—we have hikes that start off in or around villages, and our local contacts in these villages have reported that they are not permitted to receive visitors until further notice.

Are there any hikes at all?

We’ve been going out looking every week, and have been making enquiries with local contacts and scenic area staff for news on opening times and hiking.

Right now we have a very limited selection of hikes available.

We are planning to offer a hike every Saturday and Sunday.

For the Saturday hike, we’ll do a test hike with one of the hikes we scouted out during the week. If the test goes well, we’ll do that hike again the following Sunday.

The hikes for the coming Saturday and Sunday will be added to the website every Wednesday.
